As a beginner knitter, this article was very informative in the ways to keep up with practicing while making things that can be utilized in the summertime. I’d been setting my sights on making winter scarves and hats without even realizing how much I was limiting myself. Time to get started on a summer wrap. Perhaps it will be finished by the time I head out for vacation.
My favorite summer knit to wear is’ a very open knit wrap’ which is so light and airy that it can convert to be a lose cowl. I wear it to dress-up sleeveless shells, dresses, etc. It’s quick to knit, easy to put in my purse, and very practical to wear for a little warmth in air-conditioning or on a chilly evening. I knit several of them to go with different color schemes. They make great gifts, too!
